Want to travel with a group of friends or family?
Ever thought of arranging your own trip?
We can arrange private departures on a date to suit you on the majority of our small group tours, or organise a customised private group tour where we design the itinerary and activities especially for you, according to your requirements.
Private departures follow the same itineraries as our usual group tours but you pick the date. So if you can’t find a date to suit you or if you want to have your very own adventure just with your friends, family or partner (minimum two people on most trips) then we can help you.
Alternatively, we can arrange your very own customised private group tour with all the thrills, expertise and local knowledge of Explore, plus the services of a dedicated Tour Leader. Our specialists will plan your trip with you, sharing their expert local knowledge on what to see, where to stay and how to get around. If you’re a group of six or more, we can create something especially for you. Every year we arrange many private groups and expeditions for groups of friends and relatives, or for schools and special interest parties.
We have organised:
- Trekking trips to Morocco
- An archaeology tour to Turkey
- A photography tour to Cuba
- Relaxing Maldives cruise for a group of friends
- A Duke of Edinburgh expedition to Slovenia
- School groups to Venezuela, Tanzania plus other long and short-haul destinations

"The visit was an enormous success. All the participants were overwhelmed by the experience and were incredibly complimentary. The Eco Tours staff (Mark and the drivers) were fantastic. They were punctual, courteous, informative and extremely helpful. Solace Ministry was wonderful as ever – excellent food and accommodation. The day we went to the Iby’i Wacu cultural village and the primary school was absolutely excellent. We all really enjoyed it and this would definitely be a “do again” feature to include next time.
All in all, we had a fantastic, powerful and overwhelming experience. Your support has been invaluable and it has made what is a very complicated trip much easier to manage. I am extremely grateful to everyone involved for everything you have done to facilitate the visit. I could not be more pleased"
